Predicting brain outcomes in newborns with mild oxygen loss
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses brain monitoring and oxygen measurements in newborns who had a mild lack of oxygen at birth to see if these tests can predict how the baby will develop. The goal is to find early signs that might help guide care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must be at least 36 weeks in the womb and enrolled within 6 hours of birth.
- A blood test right after birth must show certain signs of low oxygen (like low pH or high base deficit).
- Your baby must have mild signs of brain irritation (called encephalopathy), but not moderate or severe.
- Your baby cannot have serious brain bleeding, major birth defects, or other conditions that could affect the brain.
- You must give permission (informed consent) for your baby to join.

This trial studies outcomes in newborns who had breathing problems from low oxygen before or during birth and were treated with a cooling therapy (therapeutic hypothermia). It may help doctors understand which babies benefit most and what recovery looks like over time.
This study looks at a blood test that might help check brain injury in newborns who had a lack of oxygen at birth. The test could give doctors more information to help care for your baby.
This study looks at newborns who had a difficult start due to oxygen loss around birth (called hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy). Researchers want to learn more about this condition to improve care and outcomes for affected babies.
This trial is for newborn babies who had an oxygen shortage around birth and now have severe brain injury. It aims to test approaches that may help improve outcomes after this kind of early-life brain damage.
This study uses a special brainwave monitor on newborn babies who may have had a difficult birth or low oxygen levels. The goal is to see if this monitor can help doctors find babies who need extra care.
This study uses EEG (a test that records brain activity) to help doctors quickly identify brain injury in newborns who had a difficult birth. If successful, it could lead to earlier treatment and better outcomes.
